The government affairs hall of Xiaobai Village is not as tall and majestic as imagined, it is a small broken thatched house, which does not even have a supporting chair and bench, only an empty piece and an upside-down straw ear hanging overhead. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Walking into the government affairs hall, in the middle of the house, there was a piece of blue-white jade suspended, spinning leisurely in mid-air.

Lin Ran inspected this piece of cyan jade.

Small village jade

The heart and symbol of a village that can help players recruit villagers, appoint and dismiss officials, handle village affairs, etc.

Durability: 10000, automatically restores 5 durability per second.

Collateral attributes: All players in Xiaobai Village within a radius of five miles gain 5% attack damage and defense bonus. (The title bonus of the first village in the world.) ）

Can this jade recruit villagers?

Lin Ran tried to open the village's recruitment interface through this jade.

Open the small village jade, and the management interface of the entire village jumps out at once.

Lin Ran can adjust the taxes of the village through the village jade, appoint the deputy head and elders of the village, recruit villagers, order the construction of various village buildings, and so on.

Now the village is in ruins, and the most lacking thing is manpower, Lin Ran opened the recruitment interface, where villagers can be recruited.

Lin Ran flipped through for a long time, the recruitment interface was full of farmers, and there was no NPC of other professions, Lin Ran thought about it, this may be that his village has just been built, and there is no attraction to attract these high-ability NPCs to take refuge, after all, a general rule in the game is that the more awesome the NPC, the more big the name.

Pick a few strength, relatively high intelligence of NPC farmers recruit, for NPC farmers, strength determines the amount of land he can cultivate every day, villagers with high strength, the efficiency of farming is much higher.

Intelligence is also very important for NPC farmers, the higher the intelligence, the more farming methods and skills they know, and the more output value can be obtained per acre.

The best, of course, is the best peasant with high strength and intelligence, and the efficiency of ploughing and working is much higher than that of other ordinary peasants. Correspondingly, the probability of such a peasant appearing in each village is very low, very rare, and even if you are lucky enough to come across one, if your village is too unattractive, it will most likely be rejected by the other party mercilessly.

Lin Ran recruited ordinary villagers, and in the entire long recruitment list, there was not a single top-notch farmer at all, how rare it was.

After the recruitment, the villagers did not appear immediately, and Lin Ran waited in the government affairs hall for a long time and did not see anyone.

This is strange, did you fail to recruit yourself? I just recruited a few ordinary peasants, so I shouldn't be able to do this.

Lin Ran walked out of the government affairs hall in confusion, and looked up just in time to see five villagers pointing at the door of the government affairs hall.

"This village is too broken!"

"Yes, I've never seen such a poor village when I've grown up so big."

"I don't care so much, as long as this village gives me a place to sleep and a full meal, I will come to this village."

Lin Ran was overjoyed, he didn't ask for much, he just ate and slept, he was just able to do it.

When the village was established, the system sent a basic start-up capital, a total of 500 units of wood, 500 catties of grain, and 300 copper coins.

Lin Ran returned to the government affairs hall and took out 10 catties of grain, so that the hungry farmers had a full meal.

"Thank you, village chief." After eating, the five peasants were full of red light, and looking at Lin Ran's eyes as if they had seen the next dinner, they joined the village without hesitation.

After five villagers joined the village, the population of the village was suddenly full, indicating that no more villagers could be recruited.

Lin Ran was puzzled, it is impossible for a small village to only have the quota of these five populations, just five villagers, ploughing some fields and planting some land is enough for themselves to eat, and what kind of village can be developed.

After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't figure it out, Lin Ran had to go to Jiangjia Village to ask Village Chief Jiang for advice, fortunately, his relationship with this old man was not ordinarily good, and now the intimacy of the two of them had reached the level of best friends, if someone else came to ask this old man questions, he might be kicked out of the village by the old man immediately.

For players, especially those NPCs with status, status and strength, they all have a unified attitude, with horizontal eyebrows and white eyes.

"This question is very simple, the initial population limit of each village is 5 people, of course, the village chief is not counted among them. After 5 people, it is necessary to build thatched huts, and each thatched hut can increase the population limit by 5. ”

"Thank you for the village chief's teaching." got the answer he wanted, Lin Ran was very pleased, this sentence avoided how many detours he took.

"Engong, you have just established a village now, and there is a lot of waste waiting to be rebuilt, and Engong doesn't know much about the process of building and developing this village now, so why don't you let me go with you to help Engong build the village quickly."

Lin Ran was overjoyed, with this super expert in village construction, he would definitely be far ahead of other players in village construction, don't underestimate this small time lead, it may bring about a nuclear fission effect in the later stage of the game.

"That's naturally good, but who will manage your village, village chief?" Lin Ran asked.

Village Chief Jiang smiled and said, "This is simple, the dog has now reached the age of the crown, and it is time to learn how to manage the village." ”

After inviting this NPC expert to the village, the construction of the village suddenly took on a new look.

As soon as they met with Village Chief Jiang, the five villagers faced expressions of fear and reverence, and lowered their heads, completely losing the giggling, lazy and lazy look they had when they first saw Lin Ran.

Lin Ran asked Village Chief Jiang with some surprise, "These villagers seem to be very respectful to you." ”

Village Chief Jiang stroked his long beard and said proudly: "This is natural, the old man is also a ten-grade official personally appointed by the imperial court. ”

It's okay in this way, Lin Ran of the province himself has a black face and looks for a whip to act as a tyrannical overseer.

Under the command of the village chief, five villagers built two houses very quickly, and the upper limit of the village's population suddenly broke through to 15 people.

"Engong, I now suggest that you cultivate the farmland first, it is now the number one, and only the first five days of the month can be cultivated, and now the time is pressing.

Unlike in reality, the grain planting in "Journey to the Empire" is harvested once a month, and it can be cultivated in the first three days of each month, and harvested in the last three days of each month.

"Okay, then I'll go and fill up the peasants at once, and all of them will go to the fields and plow."

"No." Village Chief Jiang stopped Lin Ran Dao.
